Bayonne Bridge Raising

In order to accommodate the larger Panamax ships due to pass under the Bayonne Bridge, efforts are underway to raise the bridge by approximately 64 feet above the current height of the waterway. The finished project will feature wider travel lanes, shoulders and a median divider for improved safety.

As a part of the prime team, Arora provided electrical and fire protection engineering services including design of the power distribution system to serve the Port Authority Administration Building, toll gantry, traffic control gantries, CCTV, roadway lighting, aesthetic lighting and miscellaneous maintenance facilities.

Arora also provided fire alarm design services for the upgrade of the towers abutments and associated administration, storage and utility buildings.
